When you edit images or draw them from scratch, it is necessary to have all your tools at hand, with the minimal distraction from these, in order to focus on the canvas.

Whenever you move your mouse over an option or feature, a tooltip is displayed in the left corner of the program, which makes the application very user-friendly.

Customizable brushes and tools

FireAlpaca comes with a pack of preset brushes with various effects. And even if these can be customized, you have the option to add your own brushes or pencils to better fit your work style.

The program supports graphic tablet usage, allowing you to take advantage of the pen pressure sensitivity in order to control the size and opacity of your strokes.

Layered artwork

The large variety of tools that comes with FireAlpaca works well with the ability to separate your projects into layers. This way, you can quickly test out ideas without having to change the main image.

Layers can be duplicated, so you can easily revert any made changes. The order of the layers sets their visibility priority, making the first layer to be visible on top of the others. Any layer can be also hidden easily.

Multiple projects in different tabs

Another useful feature is the integration of multiple tabs, so you can work simultaneously on more than one project, without having to run other instances of the program.

Having multiple tabs allows you to copy elements from one draft and add them to another project with ease.
